[@tama5380]

i find it crazy that this obnoxious shipping culture exists in BTR when Aki Hamaji herself stated all 4 of them have a platonic relationship

[@nirika420]

It definitely is insane. And it looks like it ain't stopping any time soon. And more anime in the future of the same genre might be subjected to such shipping. Nothing wrong with it to be honest, but sometimes it can indeed become obnoxious and toxic.

[@JamesBob1337]

eating alone in school? I never even ate in school to avoid social interactions

[@JamesBob1337]

tbh Bocchi is probably the character who's psychology i understand the most. Mostly because of how similar she is to me. So it kinda triggers me when some people misunderstand her character. She's truly a wonderful character... drunk woman is still my favourite)

[@JamesBob1337]

"she hopes that one day she gets so good at guitar, admiration will come naturally" I hope that one day i get so good at encouraging other people and making their little goals come true, that I will be known as a legendary person, just a legendary person who is very cool, relatable, funny and inspiring. Yet even here i controverse myself because i'm pretty egoistical person but i love unleashing other people's potential, really love seeing other people grow. Might be the reason why i decided to become a teacher

[@nirika420]

Deym, that's worse lol

[@nirika420]

Facts, people need to understand her more. Bocchi is an amazing character fr fr (Kikuri also the goat!)

[@nirika420]

Whoaaa, that's really cool of you to become a teacher! I wish the best of luck for you in making your dreams and other people's dreams a reality! (ps. In my eyes, you're already legendary)

[@burkshomemadememes]

"Bocchi is literally m-" *Remember that she's cute and has friends like kita and nijika. "Yeah nvm."

[@nirika420]

Yeah, it's impossible to relate to Bocchi 100% lol

[@justaclosetweeb]

exactly my thoughts too...

[@Kenionatus]

That's exactly how Bocchi would think tho. She'd definitely try her best to not see what she has, only what she's missing.

[@FuntimeAG]

​@@nirika420 you can never fully relate to someone but I can relate with everything Bocchi DOES. Every decision she makes. I'm a bit more optimistic like Kikuri and I try to be more logical and true to myself like Ryo, but In general everything Bocchi does, even the random moments of uploading a yt video to escape from reality and the way she all of a sudden wanted to be a guitarist because she thought it's cool, somehow maintaining that passion, working hard for it and her actual motivation behind it, it's like a spitting image of me and if anything I feel seriously called out.

[@nirika420]

@@FuntimeAG Well said, it's what she does the little things that we relate to. But we can't truly relate to who she is as a character (for example being god-like on the guitar 😭)

[@farrasrhn3281]

If there is one fictional character who really has influenced my perspective on life, it's gonna be Bocchi. It's not just relatable but the way she persists in her hobby/passion really inspires me to remain persistent in digital art, a passion that I am currently pursuing. And as someone who has experienced loneliness and communication struggle for 2-3 years. Great analysis man.. it's accurate and makes me even more convinced that Bocchi the Rock! is my personal top 3 best anime I've ever watched! HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO OUR PINK CREATURE🎂🎂

[@nirika420]

Thank you for enjoying the analysis! And I wish you the best in your passion for digital art!! Happy Birthday to Bocchi!!

[@trueaura369]

I'm happy a character like Bocchi exist. So nice to find someone who relates with struggles I have that also brings people together. A character that only really speaks to a specific group of people and said group can understandand and relate when some others don't and get overwhelmed with how her struggles are protrade. Happy Birthday Hitori Gotoh 🎂🎸

Best way to make a character is to make it with ur personality. It gonna make it realistic, relatable etc etc

[@faikromid1970]

@@nirika420 i see

[@Dan_Jado]

She is relatable because she is cute, I can embarrassingly say that Kuroki Tomoko is more relatable to a lot of anime fans, but she is not holding back with the weirdness and embarrassement, so many avoid thinking they are like her. I want to say I related more to Bocchi, but, in really, I'm just as weird, awful and a mess like Tomoko. Of course Tomoko has good qualities, but unlike Bocchi, Tomoko is not special or particulary good at anything. This is just talking about the anime, Watamote manga later goes on a whole different route.

[@nirika420]

That is interesting that the manga goes differently from the anime, might as well consider checking it out in the future

[@nirika420]

REALLLLL, our lives can really change when we pick up a good hobby

[@GreatNishanka]

THE BOCCHI PRAYER Verse 1: Who is Bocchi? For the blind, she is vision. For the hungry, she is the chef. For the thirsty, she is water. If Bocchi thinks, I agree. If Bocchi speaks, I'm listening. If Bocchi has a million fans, I am one of them. If Bocchi has ten fans, I am one of them. If Bocchi has only one fan, that is me. If Bocchi has no fans, I no longer exist. If the whole world is against Bocchi, I am against the whole world. I will love Bocchi until my very last breath. Verse 2: Bocchi is literally me. No other character can come close to relating to me like her. There is no way you can convince me that I’m not Bocchi. Bocchi could not possibly be any more me. It’s me, and nobody can convince me otherwise. If anyone approached me about this not possibly being me, I immediately shut them down with overwhelming evidence that Bocchi was me. Bocchi is absolutely me; it is indisputable. Why anyone would try to argue that Bocchi is not me is beyond me. If you held two pictures of me and Bocchi side by side, you’d see no difference. I can safely look at Bocchi every day and say, “Yup, she’s me.” I can practically see Bocchi whenever I look at myself in the mirror. I go outside, and people stop me from commenting on how similar I look and act as Bocchi is. I chuckle softly as I’m assured every day Bocchi is me in every way. I can smile each time I get out of bed each morning, knowing that I’ve found my identity with Bocchi and I know my place in this world. It’s amusing how similar she is to me; it’s almost like identical twins. When I first saw Bocchi, I had an existential crisis. What it Bocchi was the real me and I was the fictional being? What if she actually became aware of my existence? Did she have the ability to become self-aware? Verse 3: Bocchi and I are one and the same. No other, out of all heroes, fiends, fools, queens, living and undead, I only find myself relating to Bocchi. Many have tried, many will try, and yet many have failed, and many will fail to stir my mind and dissuade me into considering I am not Bocchi. In all but name, Bocchi is my equal in every aspect, and she is incapable of being anything more like me-- and I incapable of being more like she. Bocchi is I, and none can prove anything but that. Were one to advance towards me and suggest the inconceivable notion that I am not Bocchi, with utmost haste, their claims would be silenced once they gaze upon the overwhelming pool of truth of Bocchi and I being the same, for 'tis undisputable; Bocchi is certainly I, I who cannot comprehend why one would waste breath and energy to claim that Bocchi is seperate from me. Doth thou compare a depiction of Bocchi and a depiction of myself, there would be not a single discrepancy. With an undying certainty, I am able to look at Bocchi at any time, and with no hesitation, speaketh "Verily, she is me". When mine eyes behold mine reflection, Bocchi greets me with the same stare. Whenst I venture forth, brigands prevent me from remarking on how Bocchi and I breathe the same air and tread the same grass. If I do not guffaw loudly, I chuckle softly as it is assured daily that Bocchi is I, in every imaginable way. I awaken each morn with a grin, content in knowing who I am, and who Bocchi is, and that she and I have found mine place on this pitiful earth. It is entertainingly curious how she is to I how I am to her, as though we were babes from the same womb. Upon the first time mine eyes laid upon Bocchi the Rock, mine mind itself was Rocked by the Bocchi to its core. Lo, I felt as though-- nay, I thought as though-- nay, I knew-- Bocchi was the true I, and I was merely a work of fiction. I ponder to myself on what would occur were she aware of mine being. Mayhaps she has the ability to know her own existence, not of that as a work of fiction, but as a work of fiction knowing she is a work of fiction? This was made by a human being, who is Bocchi the Rock. Verse 4: I genuinely lost it. I can't think of anything else other than Bocchi the Rock. I don't feel like watching anything else other than Bocchi the Rock. I can't fill the hole in my heart, no matter how much Bocchi I watch. Eating lunch? Listening to rock n roll, morning light falls on you (I love Bocchi's singing voice; I cant get enough of it). going to sleep. Well, I'm typing this comment right now. Every time I do something stupid, I hear Bocchi OST play in my head. Every time I act even slightly awkwardly in public, I feel like I am bocchi. I don't have anyone to talk to. I'm at home most of the time, like Bocchi. Bocchi is literally me; if you ignore the fact that I don't have something that I am good at (like Bocchi being good at playing the guitar), honestly, I dont care anymore. I just want this hole in my heart to finally be filled again. I haven't even made any friends since I moved to high school. I haven't been able to focus on my studies because Bocchi is all I can think of. My life has been going downhill... since... as long as I can remember... and it has only gotten worse ever since Bocchi left this hole in my heart. I don't know anymore. I don't know if I can even get out of bed tomorrow, let alone fall asleep. I don't even know why I am here. I don't understand why I feel this way. I finished watching Bocchi the Rock, enjoyed it, and now I wish i never watched it so I wouldn't drag myself into this mess. Everything I used to watch on Doenst even compares to Bocchi the Rock, so I don't even feel like watching anything else. I am truly lost in the mess I made of myself. My identity is slowly disappearing, and so is my sanity. I don't even know why I am still writing this comment. I don't even know why I am not sleeping. I don't even know why I feel like this. I enjoyed watching Bocchi the Rock while it lasted, but... i cant dude... i-i just-ahhh WHYYYYYYY I just want Bocchi to be my friend. I just want her to talk to me. I don't have intentions like the Nijika Schizos, but... when I watch Bocchi, I feel like I'm looking in a mirror. The person I talk to the most is myself, to the point where I create a separate voice in my head, like someone else is talking to me. I have completely lost sight of myself. Who even am I? writing this comment like the fool I am? I vent in this comment section. I just want Bocchi to be real, to be my friend, to be the one who understands me, to be the one who fills this hole in my heart. Verse 5 (by R.V.): I... I actually love bocchi. The bocchi prayer might just be a joke to you guys, but it's true for me. Just heavily exaggerated. I love her. Romantically. Not horny love, mind you. I hate anyone who makes and/or likes NSFW art of her. It's just messed up. But yeah, I love her. As in I want her to be my wife. As in I want to make her happy. As in I want to have a happy life with her. But, someone made me question if it's actually messed up to have feelings for her. I met someone online. I won't go into detail but I told him that bocchi is my top waifu. And he's like: But you can't like her! She's a minor! And I'm like: Relax bro I'm also a minor. And he's like: But you'll grow up. And she'll still be a minor. Forever. And that made me think. Is he correct? Am I a predator? Am I a creep? Am I disgusting? It actually keeps me up at night. Thing is, she wasn't my first waifu. But, when I saw her, my feelings were... So much stronger. Do you think the bocchi pictures I have was a joke? It's not. She... Makes me happy. I can't understand it either. I can't really describe the feeling. But, was the guy correct? This has been weighing my mind for a long time. After a long time searching for the answer, I found it, and it's one which made me happy. He was not correct. Liking someone is not bad, unless taken too far. He was just some angry person on the internet, I don't blame him for making me search for the answer my entire life. Thank you for the answer, my dear Bocchi. Amen. 🙏🛐💖
